About the Role:
The AI Data & Operations Product Manager is a hybrid data analytics and product management role that serves as the product owner for ARI Commercial Operations’ internal data products, operational tooling, and future Business Administration capabilities.
The role delivers immediate value through operational data analysis, custom dashboard development, and trusted reporting, while defining the long-term roadmap for the systems, workflows, controls, and administrative capabilities required to scale Applied Research Intelligence (ARI) products and commercial processes.
Role Purpose
ARI Commercial Operations executes customer and partner commitments while building the operational systems, processes, and controls needed to scale ARI products, platforms, and partnerships.
This position connects those priorities by combining hands-on analytics with ownership of the internal tooling roadmap.
The role supports the Commercial Operations function through two interconnected outcomes:
Operations Product Management
- Define and prioritize the roadmap for internal tools and business administration capabilities that reduce manual work and enable operations to scale alongside ARI product maturity and customer adoption.
Data & Decision Support
- Create reliable, timely, and decision-ready visibility across content delivery, partner ingestion, content availability, operational readiness, and process performance.
How You Will Make an Impact:
Internal Tools Product Management
- Own the roadmap and prioritized backlog for internal operational tooling used by ARI Commercial Operations.
- Translate current-state pain points and future business requirements into product requirements, user stories, process flows, data requirements, acceptance criteria, and measurable outcomes.
- Lead discovery with Sales, Engineering, and Operations users to understand workflows, control points, handoffs, failure modes, and automation opportunities.
- Prioritize solutions that move routine tasks from developer-only execution to secure, governed self-service for authorized Operations users.
- Partner with Product Management and Engineering to align internal tooling dependencies with the broader ARI platform roadmap, while maintaining clear ownership boundaries between customer-facing product strategy and internal operational systems.
Operational Data, Analytics & Dashboards
- Design, build, and maintain custom dashboards for content delivery, partner ingestion, content inventory, and operational readiness.
- Perform ad hoc and recurring analyses to identify bottlenecks, exceptions, data-quality issues, process variation, and opportunities for improvement.
- Partner with Data and Engineering teams to source, model, reconcile, and validate data from relevant operational systems.
Cross-Functional Leadership & Process Improvement
- Serve as the primary translator between ARI Commercial Operations and technical delivery teams for operational data and internal tooling needs.
- Facilitate requirements workshops, roadmap reviews, process mapping, prioritization, and decision forums with Operations, Product, Engineering, Data, Commercial, Partnerships, Licensing, and related teams.
- Use process and performance data to identify and lead targeted improvements that reduce cycle time, increase accuracy, strengthen controls, and improve scalability.
- Create clear documentation, operating procedures, data dictionaries, release notes, and training materials for newly delivered capabilities.
- Monitor delivered solutions against adoption, quality, efficiency, and control objectives, incorporating lessons learned into the internal tooling roadmap.
Expected Outcomes in Year 1
- Complete a prioritized, multi-phase roadmap for internal operational tooling and ARI Business Administration modules.
- Launch and sustain trusted operational dashboards that replace or materially reduce manual delivery, ingestion, and content availability reporting.
- Deliver initial self-service operational capabilities that reduce manual handoffs and dependency on Engineering for routine administrative tasks.
- Establish a governed backlog, requirements process, acceptance framework, and release cadence for Operations tooling.
- Document the target-state data model, system interactions, and ownership boundaries required to support future ARI platform operations.
What We Look For
- Experience spanning product management, data analytics, operations, or a closely related discipline, with evidence of operating effectively across both data and product responsibilities.
- Demonstrated ability to translate ambiguous business problems into structured requirements, product roadmaps, prioritized backlogs, and measurable delivery plans.
- Experience partnering with Engineering or Data teams on integrations, APIs, workflow automation, internal tools, or enterprise systems.
- Ability to map complex end-to-end processes, identify control and ownership gaps, and redesign workflows for scale.
- Excellent written, visual, and verbal communication skills, including the ability to present technical and operational concepts to senior business stakeholders.
- Ability to work independently in a fast-moving, cross-functional environment with evolving products, processes, and organizational needs.
Nice to Have
- Hands-on experience developing dashboards and analytical products using a modern BI or data visualization platform.
- Strong working knowledge of SQL, data modeling, data quality, metric definition, and analytical problem-solving.

Get Access To All JobsTips for Finding Visa Sponsorship as a Data Operations Manager
Align your degree to data operations
Consular officers and USCIS adjudicators look for a direct link between your degree field and the role. A degree in information systems, computer science, or data engineering supports the specialty occupation case more cleanly than a general business degree.
Search Migrate Mate for active sponsors
Use Migrate Mate to find employers with verified LCA filing history for data operations and analytics roles. Targeting companies that have already filed for similar positions cuts time spent on outreach to employers unfamiliar with the sponsorship process.
Verify prevailing wage before negotiating
Your employer's LCA must certify a wage at or above the DOL prevailing wage for your location and role. Run the OFLC Wage Search using the data operations occupation category before your offer conversation so you know the floor, not just the market rate.
Flag data governance experience in applications
Employers sponsoring a Data Operations Manager need to document specialty occupation to USCIS. Highlighting experience with data pipelines, quality frameworks, or regulatory compliance strengthens the job description used in both the LCA filing and the I-129 petition.
Clarify cap-exempt employer status early
Universities, nonprofit research institutions, and certain government-affiliated organizations are exempt from the H-1B annual cap and selection process. Data operations roles at these employers can be sponsored year-round, so clarifying an employer's cap-exempt status before applying changes your timeline entirely.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does a Data Operations Manager role qualify as a specialty occupation for H-1B sponsorship?
Yes, in most cases. USCIS requires the position to normally require at least a bachelor's degree in a directly related field. Data operations roles that involve data pipeline management, governance, or systems oversight typically meet this standard when the job description specifies a relevant technical or analytical degree. Generalist management roles with no degree requirement can face RFEs, so the job description language matters.
Which visa types can sponsor a Data Operations Manager?
H-1B is the primary path for most nationalities. Australian citizens can use the E-3 visa, which has a separate cap and no lottery. Chilean and Singaporean nationals may qualify for the H-1B1 visa. TN visa status is not available for data operations management roles, as that occupation is not on the USMCA profession list. F-1 students can work in this role on OPT or STEM OPT while pursuing H-1B sponsorship.
What degree does an employer typically require for H-1B sponsorship in this role?
USCIS looks for a bachelor's degree or higher in a field directly related to the position. Information systems, computer science, data engineering, applied mathematics, or business analytics are the most commonly accepted fields. A general management or liberal arts degree without a technical specialization creates risk in the specialty occupation determination, particularly if the job description doesn't require a specific field of study.
How do I find Data Operations Manager jobs that offer visa sponsorship?
Migrate Mate lists employers with verified sponsorship history for data and operations roles, so you can focus your search on companies that have already navigated the filing process. This is faster than applying broadly and discovering mid-process that an employer won't sponsor.
Can I switch employers while on H-1B sponsorship as a Data Operations Manager?
Yes. H-1B portability lets you start with a new employer once the new I-129 petition is filed, without waiting for approval. The new employer must file a new LCA and I-129 for the data operations role at the new worksite. If your role changes significantly, the new petition needs to reflect the actual duties, not just transfer your existing status.
What is the prevailing wage requirement for sponsored Data Operations Manager jobs?
U.S. employers sponsoring a visa must pay at least the prevailing wage, which is what workers in the same role, area, and experience level typically earn. The Department of Labor sets this rate to make sure companies aren't hiring foreign workers simply because they'd accept lower pay than a U.S. worker. It varies by job title, location, and experience. You can look up current prevailing wage rates for any occupation and location using the OFLC Wage Search page.
